Default Would I be welcome back to the C6Z06 section???

As many of you know I jumped ship and sold the 08 C6Z06 for a 09 C6ZR1. I did love the C6ZR1 and its a bad *** car running 10.260's@135.50 with a 1.52 60ft on just drag radials. So that car FN moves!!!!!!!!!! However I'm not a big fan of debt and feel like I've left a few things un-finished in the C6Z06 section. So I'm going to come back once I pick up my C6Z06 hopefully next friday. Then I'm going to run it stock a bit then its going to be a VERY VERY aggressive Heads/Cam package. My goal will be to run 9.7X's with a Heads/cam 6speed C6Z06. Hmmmm makes ya think which vendor has such a heads cam/package and tuning to make such a car possible???????????

Didn't a NY/NJ shop put a couple of NA/Stock Cube C5Zs in the 9s? If you can do that with 346...


Honestly, I'd be more impressed if you went 9.7s in an LS7 car that you could hammer on a road course for 30 minute sessions all day long. Doing it in a car that needs new valvesprings every 10 passes is much less impressive.

I'm talking 9.7X's with a heads/cam package you drive around as a daily driver. Not the most radical thing someone can put together. I like driving my cars and handing people their A$$! Maybe you dont know how difficult it is for a individual to make a NA car run 9.7's that is daily driveable?

I know how difficult it is! because i have the power for it and havent done it yet. mastering the launch has been a challenge. But now with the heads done and grabbing a set of skinnies, i plan on cracking a 9.9 soon enough!

come on back over, there's plenty of room

You will always have a spot in here.

It's already like you never even left.

To your part in bold, I can't help but think of a prior discussion a few weeks ago.

It ain't worth going in the hole for.

Hey Bruce, it was like you never left! You just had the chance with another animal. Like you I to had thought about a ZR but to be in debt was not what I wanted either. So bring your 9.7 car, bioch!


p.s. Did you trade or sell the ZR????
